Parties set to choose peace-talk delegates
Myanmar’s political parties will meet on 21 November to select 16 representatives to take the lead on the peace process, but it remains unclear how they will be chosen.
The 16 will sit on the 48-member Union Political Dialogue Joint Committee, which is drafting the framework for political dialogue with armed ethnic groups that signed the nationwide ceasefire agreement on 15 October. The first UPDJC meeting involving political party representatives is scheduled for 24 November.
